Unboxing: Beautypress News Box August 2018

16. August 2018

// PR SAMPLE / WERBUNG / UNBOXING //

I’m super happy to show you the content of the Beautypress News Box August 2018 today! I was among the lucky winners of this box during a giveaway they had on Instagram, and I really wasn’t expecting to win, but here it is. Beautypress is an international PR Network by webportalis and it is totally dedicated to beauty products and the latest releases by brands. I have been following their newsletter and unboxings on other blogs for a long time now.

Beautypress News Box August 2018

The Beautypress News Box is a curated box by Beautypress, which is exclusively sent out to top bloggers. Unlike beauty boxes like Glossy Box, it is no subscription box and is really dedicated to introducing new brands and products to bloggers for introduction on their channels. I received the August Box, which comes with a total of 6 products from 3 different brands and a cute extra for the hot summer months, a useful hand fan!

Beautypress News Box August 2018

I will go through the products below and let you know about my first impression:

Beautypress News Box August 2018

medipharma cosmetics Hyaluron Teint Perfection Primer and Make Up

The medipharma cosmetics Hyaluron Tein Perfection Primer and Make Up are the perfect combination to achieve a satin-like and matte skin and still retain the natural glow of the skin. The primer is the perfect first step and reduces the appearance of wrinkles and pores and evens out the skin tone. It is a great foundation for the follow-up make up. What surprised me most is the hydrating texture of the primer. There is no greasy or drying feeling after applying it, but it feels smooth and refreshing! The Hyaluron Teint Perfection Primer by medipharma cosmetics is free of preservatives, parabens and allergen fragrances. The primer retails for 19.95€ and contains 30ml in a pump bottle.

Beautypress News Box August 2018 Beautypress News Box August 2018

The medipharma cosmetics Hyaluron Tein Perfection Make Up is available in two shades called natural sand and natural gold. They have SPF 15, which is a great add-on in summer. Still, I would recommend you to wear regular sunscreen below your makeup. Ingredients like hyaluronic acid, panthenol, vitamin B3 and Spilanthes Acmella Flower Extract provide extra care and nourishment to the skin. The result is a lightweight look that creates a beautiful finish but enables the skin to breathe as well. The makeup comes in a pump bottle like the primer and contains 30 ml. It retails for 24.99€.

Beautypress News Box August 2018 Beautypress News Box August 2018

medipharma cosmteics Mascara med Ultra Boost

The medipharma cosmteics Mascara med Ultra Boost is a volumizing and growth promoting mascara that makes the lashes longer and thicker. According to the description it gives 12 times more volume to the lashes. Additionally, it has a pigmenting effect and stains the lashes, which might be interesting for people with blond hair. It comes with a silicon brush attached to the wand with short bristles to catch even the smaller lashes. I really like that it is growth promoting and nourishing for the lashes, so it is make up and care in one. The formulation is not sticking, so it doesn’t stick together the single lashes. Moreover, it is free of parabens, fragrances, and prostaglandin. I still think that the product has a specific flowery scent.

Beautypress News Box August 2018

Finally, the product is suitable for people wearing contact lenses and those with sensitive eyes. The mascara can be removed without using oils, and it is also recommended in order to help the nourishing ingredients to absorb. The pink color of the packaging is a plus for all pink-lovers, too! The mascara contains 10 ml and retails for 21.95€.

Beautypress News Box August 2018 Beautypress News Box August 2018

Dr. Grandel Instant Smoother Ampoule

I love ampoules! They are small but super effective and combine so many effects and nourishment in a bit of product. The Dr. Grandel Ampoules come in packs of three containing glass vials and a breaking-cap for opening the ampoules. Each vial contains enough (3 ml) to be used several times for me. The Dr. Grandel Instant Smoother Ampoule mattifies the skin and makes pores less visible. It is a perfect ampoule to be used during the daytime before applying make up. The key ingredients are Lecithin, Enantia Chlorantha Bark Extract, and Oleanolic Acid that help to reduce the sebum and act as a mattifier. Apart from Glycerin for moisturizing the ingredients also contain Alteromonas Ferment Extract. Below you can see the full list:

Aqua (Water), Pentylene Glycol, Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Xanthan Gum, Lecithin, Alcohol, PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Enantia Chlorantha Bark Extract, Trideceth-9, Buteth-3, Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein, Sodium Benzotriazolyl Butylphenol Sulfonate, Carbomer, Tris (Tetramethylhydroxypiperidinol) Citrate, Alteromonas Ferment Extract, Propylene Glycol, Tributyl Citrate, Tocopherol, Sodium Stearate, Zinc Gluconate, Sodium Hydroxide, Oleanolic Acid, Citric Acid, Sodium Chloride, Phenoxyethanol, Phenethyl Alcohol, Linalool, Benzyl Salicylate, Limonene, Coumarin, Parfum (Fragrance), CI 17200 (Red 33)

A set of three ampoule vials retails for 14.99€, and there are even more versions of the ampoule available.

Police To Be Tattooart For Him

Police To Be Tattooart is a new perfume concept with a young and trendy concept: a scent that combines freedom and a strong personality. Tattoos have become widely accepted and common for young people and represent the individuality of the persons that have them. According to that the Police To Be Tattooart Eau de Perfume come in a signature skull-shaped bottle, that remind us of tattoo art. The perfume is available for women and men. The blue skull is dedicated to men and has a woody and aromatic fragrance. The bottle contains 40ml and retails for 24.99€.

Top Note: Lemon Verbena, Cardamom, Black Currant

Middle Note: Lavender, Clary Sage

Base Note: Tonka bean, Amberwood, Ambroxan

Beautypress News Box August 2018

What are your thoughts on the products above? The brand medipharma cosmetics was totally new to me and I love the combination of medical/pharmaceutic ingredients with skincare and makeup products. I loved the light texture of the primer and the mascara combining grwoth and nourishment with make-up effects. Ampoules are always high on my list, since they have so much power despite being so small. Last but not least, it was nice t have a product for men here, too. The skull design of the bottle is unique and I can imagine that many people will like it. How do you like these new launches?

Unboxing: InStyle Box Spring 2018

8. April 2018

//PR SAMPLE/ UNBOXING/ BEAUTY //

It’s spring, and this means it is time for another InStyle Box! The InStyle box has become one of my favourite subscription boxes, for several reasons: first, it is not a monthly box, so you have enough time to use up the products that you receive. Second, it is always filled with so many versatile products, and really stands out among other subscription boxes. I received the InStyle Box Spring 2018 for reviewing purpose and here is what’s inside:

InStyle Box Spring 2018

The InStyle Box is curated by the InStyle Magazine, and provides you with trendy items for the season. I received some of the InStyle Boxes from previous seasons, too, and if you are curious you can have a look at the past boxes >>here<<.

InStyle Box Spring 2018

Of course, for spring, the products are dedicated to the season. But it is not only spring that we feel with this box, but also summer and sun, thanks to a bunch of fruity and exotic products. The box is packed with 10 different products and a sample, together with a booklet with descriptions and more discount coupons.

InStyle Box Spring 2018

InStyle Box Sticky Notes Cloud

The first thing that jumped into my seight were these cloudshaped sticky notes! I’m a sucker for cute stationary and this happy cloud sticky note just shot an arrow through my heart. A wonderful and happy design that makes us feel the warmer seasons (retails for 6.95€).

InStyle Box Spring 2018

Korres Mango Lip Butter

This one looks so rich and smells yummy that you want to dip your fingers in. The Mango Butter is everything you need from a lip butter. It contains shea butter and rice wax for moisture, thistle oil for nourishment, and Vitamin C and E. Sounds nice and perfect to hydrate your chapped winter lips (retails for 9.99€).

InStyle Box Spring 2018

InStyle Box Spring 2018

Bellapiérre Cosmetics Banana Setting Powder

I already received one of this Banana Setting Powder with a past Glossybox, and it is really a lovely color-correcting and mattifying powder. It also has the ability to make dark eye areas appear brighter. The fine powder has been raved about all over in the online community. (retails for 25€).

InStyle Box Spring 2018

Rimmel London Royal Blush

This cream Blush in the color Coral Queen is the perfect shade for spring and summer. The blush claims to be lightweight and not greasy, but blend in nicely and leave a satin finish (retails for 6.99€).

InStyle Box Spring 2018

Lord & Berry Conceal It Crayon

That’s the first time I have a concealer crayon. I’m used to liquid type concealers but this small crayon is perfect for carrying around and it also can be used for highlighting. A pity it doesn’t come with a sharpener though (retails for 16.00€).

InStyle Box Spring 2018

Avon mark.Epic Lip lipstick

This lipstick comes in a beautiful shade that is called “Rosy Outlook”, a very versatile and spring suited shade that will suit most people. This lipstick is a long-lasting one containing primer in its formulation to make it stay for hours. I’m really curious if this will hold up to its claims. Apart from this shade there are 16 more shades available (retails for 11.00€).

InStyle Box Spring 2018

Lancaster Micellar Delicate Cleansing Water

Micellar Waters are one of my favourites when it comes to cleansing.They are usually formulated in a mild way and don’t dry out the skin. I haven’t tried any products from Lancaster, so I’m really curious to try this one (100ml retail for 5 €).

InStyle Box Spring 2018

Lancaster Sun365 BB Body Cream

Additionally to the Micellar Water, a BB Body Cream by Lancaster was included in the box. This sun cream with SPF15 helps with tanning the skin in spring without including any self-tanning ingredients. It also contains some bronzing particles to give the winter skin a first sun-kissed glow.

InStyle Box Spring 2018

28 Black Absolute Zero Guave Passion Fruit

An Energy Drink without Taurin and preservatives, that is vegan, lactose-free, and gluten-free. I’m personally not an energy drink lover, but I know some people who would love this alternative (250ml retail for 1.49€).

InStyle Box Spring 2018

Heimatgut Coconut Chips

I love coconut chips and they always make me feel like living on an exotic island and enjoying the sun. The coconut chips from Heimatgut are available in two versions, original and caramel fudge. I tested the originals (of course they were the first thing to be eaten after taking the pictures), and they taste very delicious (40g retail for 1.79€).

InStyle Box Spring 2018

So far the InStyle Box never let me down. The products have a value that exceeds the price of the box and the products are nice choices for the warmer seasons . It is hard to decide which product is my favourite from the box, since I’m happy with all of them. The InStyle Box Spring 2018 is available on shop.instyle.de for 29.90€ and comes with 3 e-paper versions of the InStyle magazine. The InStyle Box is released every three months, for each season.

Unboxing: Sanicare Box Eucerin & Friends

20. March 2018

//PR SAMPLE / SUBSCRIPTION BOX / HEALTHCARE //

Two things first: This post will be picture-heavy, and it will be in German. Sorry, for my international readers, but if you have any specific questions to any of the products let me know and I will translate and answer.

Heute möchte ich euch die Sanicare Box Eucerin & Friends vorstellen. Ihr kennt Sanicare noch nicht? Dann wird es aber höchste Zeit! Sanicare ist eine Versandapotheke und seit einiger Zeit bieten sie eine Apotheken-Box an, ähnlich zu den bekannten Beauty Boxen, nur allerdings nicht nur um sich äußerlich schön zu machen, sondern um auch von innen gesund zu sein.

Sanicare Box Eucerin

Die Sanicare Box erscheint alle drei Monate und sie enthält 5-7 Überraschungsprodukte und dazu noch Proben von ausgewählten Apothekenprodukten. Dabei werden die Produkte natürlich entsprechend der Jahreszeit ausgewählt und helfen einem im Alltag bei kleineren Wehwehchen oder einfach dabei sich besser und gesünder zu fühlen. Das Thema dieser Box ist Eurecin & Friends.

Sanicare Box Eucerin

Eucerin ist eine der bekannteren Kosmetikmarken, wenn man an Pflegeprodukte aus der Apotheke denkt. Die Marke wird weltweit von Dermatologen und Apothekern empfohlen, und basiert auf über 100 Jahren innovativer Hautforschung. Die Produkte bieten Pflege und schützen die Hautgesundheit für eine schöne Haut. Ich selbst bin großer Fan von Eucerin und war bisher nie enttäuscht von ihren Produkten. Von daher gefällt mir der Inhalt dieser speziellen Sanicare Box besonders gut!

Sanicare Box Eucerin

Übrigens ist die Sanicare Box keine Abo-box, sondern man bestellt sie immer einmalig. Der Preis liegt bei 19.95 € inklusive Versandkosten und soll in der Regel einen Warenwert von über 50€ enthalten. Hört sich vielversprechend an? Dann schauen wir mal was in der Eucerin & Friends Box alles enthalten ist, damit ihr euch auch ein Bild davon machen könnt.

Sanicare Box Eucerin

Zunächst einmal ist die Anzahl der Produkte wieder überwältigend und auch beim heben der Box fällt einem auf wie schwer sie ist. Betrachtet man die beigefügte Produktkarte werden dort 11 Produkte aufgelistet! Das rote Design der Box gefällt mir auch diesmal sehr gut!

Unboxing: Glossybox January 2018

23. February 2018

// PR SAMPLE / BEAUTY BOX / AFFILIATE LINKS //

 As promised, I have some more unboxings for you this month. Today, I want to show you the content of the Glossybox of January, the first Glossybox in 2018. This beauty box was kindly provided to me by Glossybox

Glossybox January 2018

Glossybox is a monthly beauty subscription box containing a selection of 5 beauty and wellness products packed in a box and delivered to your doorstep. The box was founded in 2011 and has spread in over 10 countries all over the world. This is the Glossybox for Germany in December 2017:

Glossybox January 2018

What is the best way to start into a new year? Usually it is some me-time, and new goals to reach. This will keep you motivated and gives you strength. Many people start to get more active and healthy at the beginning of a new year. This is all included in the January Box with the topic “Namaste Beauty”. The word “Namaste” is a common Hindu greeting, but it is also a word that makes us thing of yoga and meditation – maybe a way to find your inner beauty for 2018?!

Glossybox January 2018

As usual, the Glossybox comes with a mix of different surprise products. The January box includes 6 different products, including full-sized ones and samples, too. Let’s have a look inside:

Glossybox January 2018

Pantene Pro-V Volume Pure Foam Conditioner

I used one of these foam conditioners previously and I loved the idea of using a foam instead of the regular conditioner. Unfortunately, it was drying for my hair the last time I used it, and it was used up super quickly, too. Nevertheless, I will give it another chance and hope that it will work better this time. 140 ml retail for 2.95€.

Glossybox January 2018

Nivea 1 Minute Urban Detox Mask

Detox is always a great idea at the beginning of a new year. This peeling mask contains white clay and magnolia extract, and sounds nice. I do not use many mechanical exfoliators these days, but this looks like something I want to try as soon as my skin recovers from the cold weather :D The tube contains 75 ml and retails for 4.99 €.

Glossybox January 2018

Nail Medic Rejuvenator

This is my highlight in the January Box: a nail serum containing green tea extract and jojoba oil for giving your nails some moisture and vitamins. The serum is actually two-phased, but you only see one phase in the picture. There is a pink phase and a purple phase, and you mix the serum before use to combine the colors. So pretty! 15 ml retail for 6.80€.

Glossybox January 2018

Benefit Cosmetics The Porefessional

This is one of my favourite pore blurring primers, together with the very similar one from Innisfree that I showed on my Instagram some time ago. A little of it goes a long way, because you only want to use it on the areas were you want to make your pores appear less visible. Since it contains silicon remember to clean your face in the evening properly. This tube contains 7.5 ml and retails for 13.00€. 

Glossybox January 2018

Lord & Berry Magic Brow Perfect Eye Brow Pencil

This eye brow pencil contains two colors to give you a natural eye brow look. I love eye brow pencils and products and so I’m sure that I will use this soon. The pencil retails for 18 €.

Glossybox January 2018

Tetesept Detox Green Bath Salt

This reminds me of taking a bath again soon. I love the products from Tetesept and Detox seems to be a good idea these days, too. The sachet retails for 1.35 €.

Glossybox January 2018

A nice selection of products to start of 2018. I’m sure that I will use all the products, but my personal highlight was the nail serum. The milk glass bottle ind combination with the two-phased liquid in pink and purple is a perfect eye catcher. I hope that the Pantene Pro-V Foaming conditioner will convince me more than last time. For the other products, you can never go wrong with some eye brow pencil and primer, neither with a detox mask and bath. A very balanced box between makeup and skin/body care.

Glossybox is available as flexible subscription for 15 € per month. There are also other subscription options available, like a 3 month, 6 month or 12 month subscription for 14,50 €, 13,50 €, or 12,50 € per month, respectively. Check out www.glossybox.de for more information.

Glossybox December 2017

“Cold days, warm hearts” – what a wonderful topic! I absolutely fell in love with the knitting design of the box, and even instead of the usual ribbon you’ll find a piece of rope. Loved it so much!

Glossybox December 2017

As usual, the Glossybox comes with a mix of different surprise products. The December box includes 6 different products, including full-sized ones and samples, too. Let’s have a look inside:

Glossybox December 2017

Doucce Freematic Blush Mono in Shade “Dubai Coast”

A wonderful and natural shade, which probably suits most people and skin tones. It has a satin and smooth texture and is oil-free. The product contains 3.4g and retails for 11.75€. The November Box had a fitting case included, but unfortunately, I don’t have it here to show you.

Glossybox December 2017

L’Oréal Botanicals Fresh Care Camelina “Seidigkeits-Ritual”

Actually, I’m currently already using this shampoo and this is now my back-up bottle. I’m enjoying this shampoo a lot and it really helps to make the hair feel smoother thanks to the Camelina oil. Moreover, it is free from silicon, paraben, and synthetic dyes. The bottle contains 400 ml and retails for 7.99 €.

Glossybox December 2017

mark. by Avon Glossy Tube Lipgloss

Glossybox December 2017

NutraSkin Silk & Smooth Concealer-Trio

Here we have three different shades of concealer and the idea is to mix your shade by selecting different amounts of the three concealers. I really like the idea, and it helps to find a perfect match for your skin color. The set of three tubes containing 3 ml each retails for  17.96 €.

Glossybox December 2017

Inuwet Eyeshadow Glitter Brush

You never can have enough makeup brushes…and you can never have enough glitter! This makeup brush is vegan and made from synthetic hair. It retails for 10 €.

Tetesept “Hallo Winterpflege” Cream Shower with Almond Milk and Plum

As sample a sachet of Tetesept cream shower. I love Tetesept products, so I guess this cream shower will be smelling very nice.

Glossybox December 2017

All the products are really nice, although I loved to have a back-up for my shampoo now. And I also like the concealer set to mix your personalized shade. But, most of all I’m in love with the box, with has such a pretty design. It makes a perfect storage or gift box…and even fits for Valentine’s Day, although it’s originally a Christmas/Winter theme.

Glossybox December 2017

Here are all the products of the “Cold days, warm hearts!” Edition, and it really warmed up my heart while unboxing it.

Glossybox December 2017

Glossybox is available as flexible subscription for 15 € per month. There are also other subscription options available, like a 3 month, 6 month or 12 month subscription for 14,50 €, 13,50 €, or 12,50 € per month, respectively. Check out www.glossybox.de for more information.

Unboxing: InStyle Box Winter Edition 2017/2018

5. February 2018

//PR SAMPLE / UNBOXING / SUBSCRIPTION BOX //

I’m happy to be able to show you another unboxing of the InsStyle Box. This box is the Winter Edition and if you are curious what was inside previous boxes you can look it up >>here<<. Of course, topic of the winter edition would be products that we love and enjoy to use during winter. But it is also about what looks appealing to us from its outside. Many people feel attracted towards beautiful packaging design and I’m no exception. Just give me something cute or beautiful and I’m tempted to get it :D

InStyle Box Winter Edition

The InStyle Box is curated by the InStyle Magazine, and provides you with trendy items for the season.

InStyle Box Winter Edition

The Winter Edition of 2017/2018 delivers products that are useful in winter and that have a beautiful packaging design on top. Let’s take a peek inside.

InStyle Box Winter Edition

Zoella Just Say Yes Beauty Pouch

If you have followed my instagram you might know that I have many beauty pouches….one might consider it as pouch addiction. Now, I have a new addition and it is so lovely to look at: I like the light pink color with dots and the saying “Just say yes”. Also does it have a good size that fits a good amount of products.

InStyle Box Winter Edition

Frizz Ease Wonder Repair Shampoo & conditioner

There have been times when I only used Freeze Ease shampoo, because it was the only one that could handle my frizzy hair. But then I discovered asian beauty and loved to try out different asian hair products. Now, having the Wonder Repair shampoo and conditioner I’m really looking forward how it will work and if it will lighten up my old love for Freeze Ease again.

InStyle Box Winter Edition

Skinmono Intense Nourishment+ Hand Mask

A hand mask is exactly what my dry hands need in winter! I’ve already planned to use this mask on this weekend for some extra pampering *_* And honestly, I love the dark green color combined with the gold of the packaging.

InStyle Box Winter Edition

Real Techniques Concealer Brush

I heard a lot of good things about Real Techniques Brush. To receive one of these brushes made me super happy, although I don’t use concealer very often, but maybe it will work for foundation, too. I love the orange metallic handle by the way!

InStyle Box Winter Edition

L.O.V Browttitude Eyebrow Contouring Palette

This is what I was most excited about! I love brow products and since my Etude House Brow Kit is hitting the pan and is getting old and expired I needed a replacement. And so this L.O.V Browttitude Contouring Palette came just in time. I already used it a couple of times since then and there will be a review for sure.

InStyle Box Winter Edition

Tavana Big Five Lash Safari Keratin Volume Mascara

This is definitely a mascara that attracts by the packaging. I love the zebra pattern of this mascara. Since I have a lot of mascaras in use currently, I haven’t opened this one, yet.

InStyle Box Winter Edition

Figs & Rouge – HA+ Hyaluronic Acid 3 in 1 Hydra Active Hero Cream

Moisturize, repair and support of the skin of your body and face are the main target of this multipurpose cream. I love the pattern of the lid of this cream, which comes in a tin jar. The pattern varies and there are different designs to choose from.

InStyle Box Winter Edition

Veganz Bio Hanfriegel Apfel & Zimt

I love cereal bars like that and guess how quick I was about eating that bar from Veganz….:D I’m not a lot for apple taste in cereals and cereal bars, but it was a nice and unusual taste anyways.

InStyle Box Winter Edition

Last but not last the box contained a tea candle and a bag for some nice and cozy moments. A really cute idea for the season.

InStyle Box Winter Edition

As always, the InStyle Box contains a lot of products and shows versatility and gives a lot of information by the thorough magazine. The box really has a great value for  its price and all the products will be of use during the next months. The idea with the candle was also a sweet gesture and perfect for the season. I already love the brow kit, and I’m looking forward to test the hand mask soon. The InStyle Box is available on shop.instyle.de for 29.90€ and comes with 3 e-paper versions of the InStyle magazine. The InStyle Box is released every three months, for each season.

Unboxing: Glossybox October 2017

15. November 2017

// PR SAMPLE / BEAUTY BOX / AFFILIATE LINKS //

“Home Sweet Home”, that’s the topic of the Glossybox October 2017. And for sure, the colder season makes everybody longing for staying at home as much as possible. I want to share the content of this beauty box with you, which was kindly provided to me by Glossybox

Glossybox October 2017

October has passed so quickly, but yet it is the month when the last heat from summer has vanished and we start to care more about our body and soul and adjust to the colder weather.

Glossybox October 2017

As usual, the Glossybox comes with a mix of different surprise products. The October box includes 6 different products with the focus on body and skincare this time.

Glossybox October 2017

Babor Hydra Plus Limited Glossybox Edition

A special box curated for Glossybox containing 7 ampoules containing hyaluronic acid. I love ampoules and it is always good to have some hyaluronic acid ampoules at hands for dry skin days. Each ampoule contains 2 ml and the set retails for 19,00€. Use the code GLOSSYLOVESBABOR for 15% off babor.de until end of the year.

Glossybox October 2017

Merci Handy “Crème de la Crème” Hand Cream

These new hand creams from Merci Handy are available in 4 different scents. I received “Flower Power” in my Glossybox, but the other scents are called “Chérie Cherry”, “New Wave”, and “Hello Sunshine”. I love the hand sanitizers from Merci Handy, so I’m really curious how this hand cream will perform. It retails for 4,90€ and contains 30 ml each tube.

Glossybox October 2017

Dove Shower Cream Coconut and Almond

I love the scent of Dove products and that soapy rich scent combined with coconut and almond is pure heaven for me! I already started using this product and love it so much, with the rich foam and the scent that reminds me of summer. 250 ml retail for 2,99€.

Glossybox October 2017

Pixi by Petra Brow Tamer

Although Pixi is hyped all over the internet by almost everybody I must confess that this is the first ever Pixi product I own. That makes me especially excited! This brow tames and fixes your eyebrows and keeps them in shape for the day. It is free from parabens, fragrances and free from animal testing. 4,5 ml retail for 14,20€.

Glossybox October 2017

Sans Soucis Moisture Deep Moist Depot Sleeping Beauty

This night cream and sleeping mask is a highly nourishing cream containing hyaluronic acid, vitamin E and peptides. The protective barrier of the skin is strengthened and the skin is moisturized. This jar is a travel sized product, but the full-sized product containing 50 ml retails for 32,00€.

Glossybox October 2017

Montagne Jeunesse Foot Bath and Lotion

Last but not least, some spa for your feet instead of your face. Montagne Jeunesse is well-known for their masks and sheet masks. I never tried any of their foot or hand products though. This bath and lotion combination retails for 1,79€ for each sachet.

Glossybox October 2017

This box really makes it easy to give yourself some pampering time during the transition to colder weather. I like how it contains products for the body, face, hands and feet, so you have a real all-round spa experience here. All of the products are useful, too, and will find their way sooner or later into my routine.

Glossybox October 2017

Glossybox is available as flexible subscription for 15 € per month. There are also other subscription options available, like a 3 month, 6 month or 12 month subscription for 14,50 €, 13,50 €, or 12,50 € per month, respectively. Check out www.glossybox.de for more information.

Unboxing: Glossybox September 2017

9. October 2017

// PR SAMPLE / BEAUTY BOX / AFFILIATE LINKS //

It is time for some unboxings again :D Today, I have the German Glossybox September 2017 for you. The box was kindly provided to me for reviewing purpose by Glossybox

Glossybox September 2017

The Glossybox of September has the wonderful topic “Wanderlust”. I fell in love with box at first sight because instead of the regular pink boxes you get from Glossybox, this time the box had a beautiful dark green color, that fits perfectly to the topic and the fall season. Also the included Glossy magazine fits to the topic, which a beautiful photography from nature, making us long for some long and peaceful walks through the forests.

Glossybox September 2017

The box includes 6 different products this time reaching from decorative makeup to skin and body care.

Glossybox September 2017

Bang Beauty Cream Color

This vegan and cruelty-free cream eyeshadow has a bronze color containing sparkle. It really pops up when applied to the eyes and the bronze color is very suited for the fall season. The description says that it also can be used on the lips or as blush (fullsize, 3.5g retails for 23.00US$). You can get 25% discount until end of November using the code GLOSSY25 on the official site.

Glossybox September 2017

Babor Liquid Eye Liner

This product was not listed in the Glossy Magazine, and also it is the product which I won’t be using. It is a dark blue colored eye liner. Since I’m only wearing black and brown eyeliners this will be given away for sure (fullsize, 1ml retails for 22€). You can check out the black liner >>here<<.

Glossybox September 2017

Nutraskin Hyaluron Water

This mist is designed to hydrate and refresh your skin. Apart from Hyaluronic Acid it also contains silver particles (travel-size, 30ml retail for 39.95€).

Glossybox September 2017

Parsa Beauty Detangling Brush

This detangling brush combines boar bristles with plastic bristles in four different heights. Also the handle has additional rubber coating, so it doesn’t slip off your hands. I prefer this to my tangle teezer I had before. Also I love the combination of the plastic bristles and the boar bristles. I feel it combs more thoroughly through the hair (retails for 11.99€). You can get it >>here<<.

Glossybox September 2017

Benefit Cosmetics gogo tint

I was so happy about this product. I love lip tints and the classic benefit tint was my first tint ever. This tint is more pinkish that the original, but it is as awesome as ever. Perfectly to use on lips and cheeks and gives you a nice pop of color (travelsize, 10ml retail for 33€). Check out benefit tints >>here<<.

Glossybox September 2017

Rituals The Ritual Of Ayurveda Natural Dry Body Oil

This body oil was this months goodie and is a hit to the new Glossybox Special Edition dedicated to the “The Rituals Of Aryuveda”. I love the products from Rituals for their unique and divine scent and aromas. This body oil was really a nice surprise to have as additional item in the box (travel size, 100ml retail for 19.50€)- Check out the products from this line >>here<<.

Glossybox September 2017

The content of the September box was nicely selected. My favourites are the detangling brush, the benefit tint and the Rituals oil. I will not be using the eye liner though. I also think that blue is not a good selection for fall season. Nevertheless, all together I’m happy.

Glossybox September 2017

Glossybox is available as flexible subscription for 15 € per month. There are also other subscription options available, like a 3 month, 6 month or 12 month subscription for 14,50 €, 13,50 €, or 12,50 € per month, respectively. Check out www.glossybox.de for more information.

Unboxing: InStyle Box Summer Edition 2017

12. September 2017

// PR SAMPLE / SUBSCRIPTION BOX //

Let’s have another unboxing of a summer themed box before it has passed completely :D I’m happy to have the chance to show you the content of the InStyle Box Summer Edition 2017, which was provided to me for reviewing purpose. Like the Instyle Box I showed last time >>here<<, also this box was packed heavily with awesome products in my opinion. This post will be picture-heavy due to the loads of products that were included, my apologies in advance >_<

InStyle Box Summer Edition

As the name already suggest this box is dedicated to summer and to products that bring us in a summer mood and are useful during this season. And as if they knew, they already predicted the ups and downs of summer in Germany. You must know that the weather here is not really reliable in summer, so our beauty routine has to be adapted to every possible situation :D

InStyle Box Summer Edition

That said I will start with the beauty products first:

OGX Argan Oil of Morocco Shampoo and Conditioner

These travel sized bottles of the OGX Argan Oil of Morocco Shampoo and Conditioner are perfect for vacation. I already bought them last year and liked the products a lot. They make the hair smooth and manageable even in dry climate. They contain argan oil of Morocco, which also protects the hair from UV rays and heat damage, by giving deep nutrition. I used both of these during my vacation and it was the perfect size for the 2 weeks showering daily. These are available from your drugstore or amazon. The fullsize retails for around 8 €.

InStyle Box Summer Edition

Douglas Make-Up Mattissim Lipstick

The Mattissim Lipstick by Douglas comes in the summer color called “Senorita”, an orange hued red shade. This liquid lipstick has a velvet matte texture without stickiness. A soft doe-foot applicator helps to create your look. I love the lid, which is covered in black velvet. It retails for 9.99 €.

InStyle Box Summer Edition

Aqua Colonia Pink Pepper & Grapefruit

Solid soap becomes very handy during vacation time. Usually, I’m using liquid soap at home, but the benefit of having solid soap that cannot spill inside your luggage is definitely a plus here. The Aroma Soap from Aqua Colonia in Pink Pepper and Grapefruit is a perfect scent for warm weather. The spiciness of the better together with the freshness of grapefruit make a perfect combination. The soap retails for 7.38€.

InStyle Box Summer Edition

Treaclemoon Soft Watermint Rain

I have resisted to buy this new line called Watermint Rain from Treaclemoon for weeks, since it released and luckily the InStyle Box contains the Body Milk of this line. This refreshing body milk is absorbed quickly into the skin and is easily to spread. I love the packaging design with the mint color and the mushrooms. You can get the products from your local drugstore or amazon (around 10 €).

InStyle Box Summer Edition

Comodyness Urban Cosmetics Self-Tanning Body Glove

I need to try this yet but is sounds very interesting, since it is a glove and not a spray or cream. It is free from parabens and allergens and promises a natural and uniform body color for all skincolors. Maybe I can get rid of my tan lines with this glove. One piece retails for 5 €. You can get a set of 3 for 15 €.

InStyle Box Summer Edition

L’Oréal Botanicals Fresh Care Geranium Glow-Elixir

A perfect fit, considering the fact that I received shampoo and conditioner from Botanicals Fresh Care in my previously unboxed Barabara Box! The product comes in a spraying bottle and contains oil from Geranium, soy and coconut to help your hair fix its glow. The products from Botanicals are without parabens, silicons and dyes. The spray can be used on toweldry hair or in between. It retails for 9 €.

InStyle Box Summer Edition

Avon Mark. Gel Shine Nail Enamel

This nail polish from Avon gives your nails a gel-look without the need of an UV lamp. The shade “Fabulous” is a dark pink, perfect for summer. There are 33 colors available for the Mark. Gel Shine Nail Enamels.

InStyle Box Summer Edition

Vandini Hydrating Face Mask

This Face Mask containing hyaluronic acid and caviar helps to retain hydration of the skin and makes your skin smoother and plumped. Each sachet can be used for two applications. I haven’t tried products from Vandini yet but I’ve heard good things about it. Looking forward to try this mask. This mask retails for 6€.

InStyle Box Summer Edition

Let’s turn to the fashion and accessories products from the box:

Rapunzel of Sweden Magic Rubberbands

I love these kind of curly hairbands. And since you never can have enough hairbands I was super happy to see 5 colors of these included in the box. The brand Rapunzel of Sweden was new to me, but they are popular for hair extensions in Sweden. The set of 5 retails for 3.99€.

InStyle Box Summer Edition

Levi’s Pins

Levi’s is not only a brand for denim, but also do they now offer pins. After the comeback of patches on clothing pins seem to be the next big thing to decorate your favourite jacket. The box included two pins from Levi’s.

InStyle Box Summer Edition

Flamingo Luggage Tag

Another of my favourites from this box: I love this flamingo luggage tag. It was my perfect companion during my travel and I had it attached to my suitcase all time during the weeks in Mexico.

InStyle Box Summer Edition

The food item in the summer box was Corn Chico Popcorn Magic Mix. I love popcorn, and this one was no exception and gone in a minute :D

InStyle Box Summer Edition

What I really like about the InStyle Box is the versatility and the thorough magazine with the information. The magazine also includes a bunch of coupons for various online shops and even a Starbucks Coupon. The box really has a great value for  its price. The Box is available on shop.instyle.de for 29.90€ and comes with 3 e-paper versions of the InStyle magazine. The InStyle Box is released every three months.

Allgemein Barbara Box beauty beauty boxes PR Sample

Unboxing: Barbara Box No. 2/2017

19. August 2017

// PR SAMPLE // SUBSCRIPTION BOX //

I talked about the newly launched Barbara Box earlier this year and I loved the concept and the products so much and was totally convinced about this new concept of box. If you missed my first unboxing you can head over >>here<<. Today I will show you the content of the second Barbara Box, dedicated to beautiful summer moments that you can share with your best friends:

Barbara Box No. 2

The Barbara Box ambassador is also the donor of the name, a German celebrity called Barbara Schöneberger. The box is not only advertised by her, but also she selects the products. The topic of the boxes revolve around “Girls Night” with your best friend(s)and contain food, drinks, beauty, decoration, games…so as you see the Barbara Box seems to be very versatile.

Barbara Box No. 2

The box is not a monthly box but is released every three months and comes together with a print of the Barbara magazine, a magazine curated by Barbara Schöneberger aswell and addressing women in their 30s.

Barbara Box No. 2

Let’s see what we have inside the summer-themed second Barbara Box:

Barbara Box No. 2

First of all the box was super heavy and I discover quickly what was the reason behind it. There was drink included: Ramazzotti Aperitivo Rosato together with Schweppes Indian Tonic Water. Enough to make two Summer Drinks and it was really delicious and refreshening, too.

Barbara Box No. 2

Summertime is also usually the time when we neglate our skincare, because we don’t want to put too many products on our face. Yet the box includes Tavana The Pearl High Performance Boost Day Cream to remind us that the skin still needs some pampering.

Barbara Box No. 2

But it is not only our face we have to care about, but also our hair and body. For haircare the box comes with the new L’Oréal Botanicals Fresh Care Camelina Shampoo and Conditioning Balm. This new line contains botanical ingredients and no silicons, parabens, or dyes. Camelina oil helps to smoothen and detangle frizzy hair.

Barbara Box No. 2

For the body we have the Rituals Cosmetics Express Your Soul Shower Oil, a limited edition that comes in a green/yellow colored bottle for extra summer vibes. The design was created by MadC. I haven’t used it yet, but oil sounds like a perfect treat for dry summer skin.

Barbara Box No. 2

Barbara Box No. 2

My personal highlight was a delicate lucky bracelet from iCrush which was included in the box. This Mandela bracelet is symbolizing harmony and can be used by yourself, or you can give it to a friend to celebrate your friendship.

Barbara Box No. 2

As extra there was a Barbara magazine included and post cards with fun slogans. I personally preferred the post cards from the first box because I loved the black and white design.Last but not least a makeup pouch was included, perfect for summer time and travel season! It says “Kriegsbemalung”, which means “war paint” in English.

Barbara Box No. 2

A total of 9 products including the magazine and the postcards. Although the first box contained more products in total, this box has a very good value. While the last box also contained some food and a game, this one focused on skincare/body/spa. I like that the content was different from the previous box and I’m still convinced that this subscription box is one of the most versatile boxes I’ve tested so far.

Barbara Box No. 2

Barbara Box is released every three months, which makes it even more appalling in my opinion. The box retails for 29.95 €, but there are also options for a yearly or half-year order with 4 or 2 boxes, respectively. Considering the prize of the included products in the first two boxes it makes up far the retail price definitely. I’m really curious how they will continue in the future. How do you like the second Barbara Box?
